Bayern's Berno in arson claim

The Bayern Munich defender Breno has been charged with arson following a fire which burned down his rented Munich villa last year, the Munich prosecutor's office said yesterday.

If found guilty he could be jailed for between one and 15 years, the prosecutor's office said. The 22-year-old Brazilian, who has hardly featured for Bayern this season due to injuries, spent 12 days in police detention at the start of the season.
